I am not Spanish.
I hope that whenever this boom happens, another thread is started so we can separate it from what may or may not have happened in the 60âs.
Crazy to think in todayâs day and age Guy probably wouldâve been fired, nobody is given any time these days
They both wore an onion on their belt when they watched elvin hayes play⊠which was the style at the timeâŠ
You got to get up pretty early in the morning to get a simpsonâs quote past meâŠ
Dude! I remember it like it was yesterday. His head was on the chopping block. If there was social media back then, he would have been fired period! So sad, yet very true!
HeyâŠmock us all you likeâŠitâs actually good stuff. Especially the Simpsonâs referenceâŠstill etched in my memory.
A couple of thoughtsâŠ
Take the ribbing in good grace when you are 70+⊠God willing you will still be around to promote and follow the Coogs
We were the proud 500+ that showed up for the infamous Louisville FB game in the dark days
We contributed when there was no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, only hoping that our sons and daughters would someday realize what we were so proud of having graduated from UH.
Seriously, I appreciate the jabsâŠprobably deserved for hijacking the thread. But never forget the history and the adversities all of us have overcome that have made and continue to make our University what it is today.
Go Coogs!!!
Great memories of watching Rob.
Great memories of watching Cadillac AndersonâŠ
INDEED! I remember one game against uta, when we were playing in Austin, I was sitting in front of a group of whorn fans who were their usual obnoxious selves. The whorns made a notable play, and they were sounding off pretty good, complete with verbal jabs made at me personally. I responded by telling them to just wait a bit and Rob would âshow them what he could do.â
He did - and my whorn antagonists grew very quiet!
low it isnât a matter of different truths. Butch was the Daily Cougar sports reporter and traveled with the team. During the time period of recruiting Butch was always really close to the real stuff.
Beautiful! I bet it was a wonderful sight silencing the Hornfans up in Austin!!!
I think I actually answered the whornfans, when they made noises about their player, by saying something like - âJust wait, Rob will SHOW you how that is done.â And, a few minutes later, he did just that!
The whorns never said much after that! And yes, it was âbeautifulâ; I enjoyed that very much! I donât remember the final score, but we ended up stomping them!
On Drexler, I remember his first game in Austin driving the baseline and the subsequent tomahawk slam in LaSalle Thompsonâs face. I looked at my dad and said âwe got us a basketball team!â
As a young child I went to the games (UCLA included) and have some recollection of them. My first âheroâ was Louis Dunbar.
Before a game in Hofheinz, I told my grandmother (Born in Louisiana) that Dunbar was my favorite player. This was during pregame warmups.
She proceeded to walk down the aisle, then to the access area to the court, and literally walked up to Dunbar who was in line in pregame warmups and asked him for his autograph to give to her grandson.
Great memories.
I remember Drexler as a freshman driving the lane and taking to the air just inside the free throw line and jamming over A&Mâs 6-11 Rudy Woods at the HofâŠthe guy sitting next to me got so excited he gave me a big elbow and something to the effect ofâŠâWow can you believe that? That kid is going to be very special.â
The guy with the elbow was named Jerry West. I was in awe the rest of the game LOLâŠI think he was scouting for the Lakers at the timeâŠshould of gotten his autographâŠ
Are we in the mix for Aku
?
we are, interview from 2 days ago.
Some site doesnât have us listed. Another says heâs a lock for ATM. If I were Kellen I would have every computer executive alum in Houston hitting his twitter.
I think the young man would fit right in to coach Sampsonâs system and if he continues to improve I can see him playing lots of minutesâŠfingers crossedâŠ
And btw, I bet if we can get Hakeem to talk to him it would helpâŠ
I think that would be an NCAA violation
